Must admit the air suspension for road use makes a lot more sense
Urus Performante

If the Perf had that , it would make sense. Plus I’m saving over 30k. They said it’s going to get built march / April so I should see it in June most likely.

I have a feeling SA's are finding out at the dealer meeting the Perf is all but sold out so they're going to start pushing the S on clients.
For me personally I already have a U so jumping into the S doesn't make sense. I'd rather buy the Perf because it'll be rarer and I like the new wheels, carbon hood, akrapovic exhaust and the aggressive stance you get from the fixed springs. I'll see what my SA tells me when he gets back but I have a feeling the U Perf is the the next Tecnica, dealers have taken deposits but allocations will be hard to come by.
And remember the S/Perf will have about a year or so production run before the hybrid arrives and according to Winkelmann's latest interview the hybrid will be the only model for sale in 2024 so time is ticking.

I would agree that as Perf orders are sold out mentioning the S is a better option helps with getting clients in. I think they are both fab but I am Perf all the way.
They prob will push it. I sold mine. So I don’t have that at all right now .
My main factors why I want the S.
Air suspension
Interior color options.
I’m doing the akro exhaust on it. Had it on my 21 and felt it’s needed. I am the next allocation for a perf if I want it. It’s just to similar. I was hoping it would have more HP and be more aggressive then the S. I guess they really did a nice job with the S. My dealer said carbon is the major issue. As others have said.
Going to finalize it in the next 2 days. Afraid to pass up an allocation. Honestly I wasn’t expecting the emailing today
it’s a tough call. Both are great vehicles. I would lie if I said I wasn’t confused. If the perf allocation came though first I would be grabbing that right now. I don’t think you can go wrong either way in my opinion.
Maybe the S will sound the same as the Perf.

I agree, you can't go wrong with the S or a Perf. It's not like dealers are giving away S allocations so smart move to pounce on the offer.
Next is the av replacement when ever that comes!
Based on what?! Because dealer said it sounded different. LOL. I don’t understand the logic some people base their conclusions on. So many people rationalize their reasons solely based on “because that’s what I’M getting”.
I think a difference in the exhaust note would distinguish it a bit from the "regular" version, that's it. i don't need it, but i think it's always nice when the different versions also sound a bit different, don't you?
I don't think so, as the S has the standard exhaust and not the akrapovic.
But tbh, i would never pay for the akrapovic, as the difference is there but too small. i would have prefered a cheaper base price and the akrapovic as an option .. but they needed the weight savings for promotion reasons i guess.
I had the akro on my 21 and I’m gettting it on my S. Everyone has there own opinion on it. Personally I can’t not have it. I’ve seen ones without next to me and personally I like the tone a lot better. Is it worth 14k? Prob not. Still getting it since I like it better.Now I decided not to go with a 14k paint tho.
That's absolutley understandable. Personal preference!
Me, on the current Urus, i prefere the stock exhaust ...
I don't know why 'thomba' seemed to get so mad at me with his previous post .. but like you, i would be happy with a new / different tone, just for me in comparison to the current akrapovic and not the stock exhaust. It's a new model, a new sound note would be cool.

Here's what my SA texted me from Rome...
"Factory is very coy about whether or not the Urus S and Performante are "sold out" but we were informed the factory will not have enough carbon parts and have no plans to produce more because the hybrid will be a redesign which means Performante production will be short and limited and likelihood of carbon becoming available for the S is slim to none. There was also talk about possible shortage with interior carbon. Tbh it doesn't bode well for the Performante allocations so a lot of dealers are trying to sure up Urus S allocations which are going fast. S without carbon will be the best bet atm"

This is why I locked mine in. With the carbon shortage, no S will have any exterior carbon for the year. Honestly if I really want carbon, I can always add it afterwards. Who knows, they could have an issue with the perf. To me , the perf is all about the carbon. Without , I wouldn’t get it. Regardless, both will be sought after. I personally don’t want a plug in urus. Who knows , maybe I’ll change my mind later on. If they came out ( doubt it ) with a v12. I would hop on that right away.
